Hyperplasia of pancreatic islets associated with extrapancreatic lymphoma and sarcoma.
A preliminary study revealed pancreatic hyperplasia to be present in 29 per cent of 100 consecutive necropsies. Malignant neoplasms coexisted with hyperplasia of islets in 14 (48.3 per cent) of the 29 cases. On the basis of the results of this study, the islets of Langerhans in microscopic sections of pancreas from 20 cases of accidental death (normal controls), 10 cases of extrapancreatic lymp...
متن کاملCystic pancreatic neoplasms
Cystic pancreatic neoplasms are uncommon, but are being seen more frequently due to the widespread use of crosssectional imaging. In this article, we will address the clinical and imaging features of the more commonly seen neoplasms. Points of differentiation between these neoplasms, the use of cyst fluid analysis and an approach to the incidentally discovered cystic mass will be addressed.

Cystic pancreatic neoplasms comprise a heterogeneous group of pathologic entities. Mucinous cystic tumors and serous cystadenomas account for more than 75% of reported cases. While serous cystadenomas are almost uniformly benign, mucinous cystic tumors all have malignant potential and must be treated as such. While both clinical and biochemical features can distinguish among the various cystic ...
متن کاملPANCREATIC NEUROENDOCRINE NEOPLASMS (pNENs)
Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNENs) are relatively rare lesions that have been increasing in incidence over the past few decades largely because of the diagnosis of pancreatic incidentalomas on cross-sectional imaging. Most of these tumors are nonfunctioning presenting with symptoms secondary to mass effect, metastatic disease or as incidental findings. Diagnostic workup aims to assess ...
متن کاملPancreatic carcinoids (serotonin-producing pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms)
INTRODUCTION Pancreatic neuroendocrine neoplasms (pNENs) are relatively rare tumors representing 1% to 2% of all pancreatic neoplasms. These tumors can secrete a variety of biologically active substances giving rise to distinct clinical symptoms or can be clinically nonfunctioning. Apart from insulinomas and gastrinomas, which constitute the majority of functioning pNENs, some tumors may secret...
